[quote="pinkbowtiepumps"]Well, the only issue with a lot of cafeteria food is that I'm allergic to fish as well, so sushi and stir fry are out of the question. Fries are okay, since they're the only stuff that's fried in that specific oil in my cafeteria. I've been sticking to noodle-free soups and a lot of salad (since I'm still eating dairy). Also, a lot of organic smoothies. Is ketchup okay? I know it has vinegar...[/quote]

I typed a long message with a link to a new book about going GF, but it got canned because I haven't been a member long enough to post URLs. Ugh. I'm too lazy to retype what I wrote, so I'll just give you the name of the book: <br /> <br />"Gluten Free Success For The College Student" <br />You can order it at glutenfreesuccess <br /> <br />Also, try talking to the head of the cafeteria of the menu planner/nutritionist. With food allergies being so prevalent these days, they should have some list of foods/meals that are free of the common allergens. Unlike 5-10 years ago, they WILL know what you mean when you say gluten-free! <br /> <br />Two of my kids have been GF or GFCF at one point in their lives. My oldest had allergy-like symptoms and my youngest had autistic symptoms. My ASD child responded well: lost his 'fog' and became a member of the family again. It wasn't his cure, but it did help him heal somehow. He is no longer GFCF but our doc recommended another trial since he did well so long ago (he was 2 at the time). <br /> <br />I don't envy you! It is one thing to learn to go GFCF when you have complete control over cooking and purchasing food. It is another to figure it out with such limited accesss to meals. I hope the school can help you out by providing info on what they serve. <br /> <br />You will need to be 100% GF in order to determine if this diet is for you. Probably a minimum of 4 months to make sure you aren't getting hidden gluten. Many feel better very soon. Some figured this out after being sick for a few weeks and unable to eat... they felt so good while not eating. <br /> <br />Good luck to you. I hope you are enjoying college. I wish I could do my college experience all over again. I was pretty messed up when I went! <img src="modules/Forums/images/smiles/icon_redface.gif" alt="Embarassed" border="0" /></span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>LeKiwi</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="http://wrongplanet.cachefly.net/modules/Forums/templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon Apr 14, 2008 6:12 pm<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"></span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>Mishcana wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote"></span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>LeKiwi wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote">I'm trying to cut back on my gluten intake - not totally, but as much as possible.

Some cafeterias have sushi - check the ingredients, it may not be ok, but often is. <br /> <br />Some places have those rice fry things, but usually fry noodles on the same grill, so if you're very sensitive, watch it.
